Ohio Wesleyan University made a stirring announcement on Monday on Twitter, and also shared that news with someone who had helped make it possible.

Since its launch, the Connect Today Create Tomorrow campaign for the University has resulted in 18,188 donors. The last of those, 2015 OWU grad Drew Peng, pushed the total over $200 million with his gift.

The campaign has generated many gifts, including a $10 million contribution from an anonymous alumni couple.

To commemorate the achievement, the Bob the Bishop joined Katie Webster, Director of Alumni Engagement on a visit to share the news with Peng.

More information on the Connect Today Create Tomorrow campaign can be found here. The video can be seen below.
